Take an in-depth look into the lives of Pokémon!

When we talk about how a Pokémon lives within nature, and the relationships between it and its environment, we call that its 'ecology'. This book introduces you to the ecologies of many Pokémon based on the descriptions of them found in the Pokédex.

This innovative, highly illustrated new book introduces you to the ecologies of Pokémon based on information from the Pokédex, the official database containing over 7,500 pieces of Pokémon data. Over 1,000 species of Pokémon have been discovered and this book shows the many ways that some of them live their lives.

This groundbreaking, full-colour new guide takes you on a journey to discover Pokémon from all nine known regions, their different environments and how they adapt to them, even how they catch and collect their food, and much, much more.

Using vivid artwork, Pokécology: An Illustrated Guide to Pokémon Ecology focuses on the similarities, differences, generalities and relationships between Pokémon ecologies and explains Pokécology from a brand-new perspective.

This book is perfect for fans of all ages and will prove to be an indispensable reference to everyone interested in the wonderful world of Pokémon.

About the Author

Pokemon is one of the most popular and successful entertainment franchises in the world, encompassing video games, the Pokemon Trading Card Game (TCG), mobile games and apps, animation and movies, Play! Pokemon competitive events, and licensed products. It was first established in Japan in 1996 with the launch of the Pokemon Red and Pokemon Green video games for the Game BoyTM system. The video games were released internationally in 1998 as Pokemon Red and Pokemon Blue. More than 25 years later, Pokemon continues to be a global entertainment mainstay and pop culture icon.
